The Oilers will play either the Dallas Stars or the Winnipeg Jets in the Western Conference Final. Dallas leads that best-of-7 series 3-1 with Game 5 on Thursday (9:30 p.m. ET; TNT, truTV, MAX, CBC, TVAS, SN).

Edmonton came out on top of a nerve-wracking Game 5 on Wednesday night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, with Kasperi Kapanen lighting the lamp and ending the Golden Knights’ season in overtime. The 1-0 Oilers win was also Edmonton’s second shutout victory in a row, as netminder Stuart Skinner continued to prove his mettle between the pipes.

It’s over! The Edmonton Oilers have advanced to the Western Conference Final of the 2025 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs after defeating the Vegas Golden Knights in five games.
